From the UFC stand point, this is the no-brainer move in the case of a Silva loss.

Scenario 1: Weidman wins the first one, wins the second one. The chance of dismissal as a fluke win is eliminated, Weidman makes a name for himself as a marketable fighter for being the guy who dethroned the most dominant champion in UFC history

Scenario 2: Weidman wins the first, loses the second. The rubber match sells a card that will undoubtedly field 1 million+ PPV buys and obviously a sold out arena (probably MGM Grand).

Beyond the business aspect, I think that if there is any fighter in the world who can be preemptively granted an immediate rematch in the case of a loss, its Anderson Silva.

sorry wrong place to bring up, the homepage does be a bit sucky but I go straight to forums, just laid out like another site I frequent so I know layout bettr

This is bullshit. When you lose the next fighter in line gets a chance. I don't care whom it is or how many title defenses they have.

I can't say I disagree with you on that but the UFC obviously holds its title to much lower standards than you would. I would agree with an immediate rematch for Silva much more than around half the title fights they've put together lately.

Aww the rep thing is still here goddamnit... Can i block ppl?? Literally once a day i get messages from sniggles negging me... You really need to get a life bud

Take shit to private messages. I negged you 4 times in the last 2 months. I hold myself back from negging you more often. They are either shit posts with little intellectual effort or they were relating to your overt misogyny towards WMMA. It's great that you don't like WMMA, you don't have to be a cunt in every thread about WMMA.

A neg is a neg. It is not a message nor it is a form of harassment. I vehemently disagreed with your shitty posts so I gave you some red squares. Stop being a crybaby bitch. I am sure I am not the only person that negs you.

I would be fine with the rubber match if it is even remotely indecisive, or even if it is a UD with no serious damage done . I just see no cause to guarantee a rematch if he gets dominated for every round and then KO'd/subd. That would be utter BS.
